Poem
dear Canada, dear France, dear Australia, dear UK & to the other countries of the world who are in the process of using their governmental structure to alleviate the health care catastrophes within their own borders, by taking up the whole of the financial burden to provide their own citizens with the ability to stay healthy, without becoming broke & destitute, or dead--- this writer would like to ask ahead of time (prior to 2014) on behalf of himself & all the citizens of the United States of Absurdia, if there is some way that he & the rest of the uninsured lot, whose daily toils simply do not provide enough scratch to pay the coming PERSONAL MANDATE, of which mr. hope & change has imposed upon the people of the empire, today, crippling those who are not seniors (those who complain with their vote), crippling those who do not fall into the hailed “young people of America” pool (those who have just come of voting age & whose breasts are filled to the brim with dreams of universal peace & utopia, which they think can be achieved very very quickly, via one man), if, there is some way we can get some jobs (be them the most mundane, meaningless & random in the world), some food (be it the worst tasting---we can either stuff it down our gullets or refrain from eating, as all Americans can stand to lose a few pounds anyway), some shelter (we won’t be picky, as many of us are squashed into closets now) & of course, a health care system where the government assumes the responsibility for the welfare of the people in its control, as opposed to bending them over the table & raping them until they bleed, only to refuse that they can come into the ER to get some help in sewing up the newest wound, because they don’t have that precious little health insurance card, which says they are STILL paying, in order to stay alive in the empire that does not respect them or give a shit, whether they live or die.
